  nowwhat?

  "All people in the world are currently considered enemies of God" Gee I wonder where some poeple get the idea that we are an extremist organization.

  " jehovahs chariot is moving forward at blazing speed!" in what reality is contraction and downsizing moving forward?

  "It used to be that if a congregation reached 150 publishers we would split into 2 congregations now if we have 2 congs. At 75 pubs.we now merge them into one!! Again in what reality is that a good thing?

  Made a blanket statement: " don't believe negative media reports!"

  "Even if the Russian court case has a negative outcome it's because Jehovah allowed it." so why bother writing letters? Do these guys actually buy this dribble they spew out? or are they just trying to keep their jobs?

  Also they are taught that Satan is the ruler world, the god of this system of things, which means all non-jws are direct or indirect worshippers of Satan.

  "Do these guys actually buy this dribble they spew out?"

  Most do. They are in the JW bubble so they have nothing to compare their life to. Our family is in such fear of the outside world that it even affects them financially. If they did what my spouse and I do every day, their heads would explode. You actually have to have contact with outsiders to make a living. They don't get it.

  "Don't believe negative media reports!"

  What more proof does one need to show that Jehovah's Witnesses are a cult? It's not even a denial of the accusations. It's just a command - don't believe!

  Why not believe media reports? Are they fake news? On the contrary - media reports on Jehovah's Witnesses are some of the only non-politically biased news reports available these days.

  Ignore the man behind the curtain! I am the Great and Wonderful Jah!

  It become harder and harder to sing the company song. I would love to see the body language when the C.O. made these comments.

  " jehovahs chariot is moving forward at blazing speed!"

  is it not supposed to instantly change directions. left and right and backward, with those wheels within wheels at right or wrong angles? and having four driver's faces looking whereever each way? with all the changes, it is really more like jerking."

  Its hard to see how witnesses can believe the false lies about moving ahead at lightening speed. The societies own yearbook shows very clearly in the yearly service report that it is certainly is not now true and hasn't been true for quite a while now. This last service year actually showed no increase at all over the whole of Europe.
